Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Understand the stages of mitosis: Mitosis is divided into several phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
Identify the role of the spindle apparatus: The spindle apparatus is responsible for separating chromosomes during mitosis.
Recall the events in each phase: In prophase, the spindle fibers begin to form. In metaphase, chromosomes align at the cell's equator. In anaphase, sister chromatids are pulled apart by the spindle fibers.
Focus on telophase: During telophase, the spindle apparatus disassembles, and the spindle fibers break down as the cell prepares to complete division.
Conclude that the disassembly of the spindle apparatus occurs in telophase, marking the end of mitosis and the beginning of cytokinesis.
